Few roofing materials can claim the title of lifetime roofing from slate. This naturally-occurring material is quarried directly from the earth and is one of the most durable and longest-lasting roof materials available. It’s aesthetically pleasing, too, possessing a distinct appearance that can’t be matched by others.
Dior Construction discusses why you should choose slate for your new roof installation project.
Slate: A Material That Lasts A Lifetime
When it comes to sheer longevity, few can compete with slate. This material can easily last for more than a hundred years, and it doesn’t falter in terms of performance. This life span is more than double of other premium roofing materials. As a result, it’s the ideal roofing material if you don’t plan to move or sell your property anytime soon.
Durable Roofing
As local roofing contractors, we want to make sure you get the most out of your new roof. This is why we recommend slate because it’s a durable and low-maintenance material with natural resilience higher than its synthetic contemporaries.
Plus, thanks to its density, slate is naturally waterproof and has high resistance to temperature fluctuations. As a result, it’s also virtually immune to fungus and mold development. On top of that, slate is naturally non-combustible, so it will protect your home in the event of a fire.
Unique Aesthetics
Slate boasts natural beauty that can enhance any property regardless of architectural style. Coupled with its peerless durability and longevity, you get a visually arresting roof that will boost your home’s curb appeal long after other roofing systems have started fading and failing.
Slate also has a generous color palette, with many options like green, gray, purple, and even a mixture of different colors. Slate’s unique and long-lasting appeal also has one other advantage: your property will have a high resale value if you ever need to part with it.
